Forecast was for 2-3 knots from the SE.
Melissa, John, and I were one of the first boats off the dock.
Motored out to Mark 9 as the committee boat Tanker Jones got there just before us.
I had the main up, but it was flapping in the waves. HATE THAT SOUND, so we dropped it, and then rolled it and put it away.
Bobbed around for a while, Tanker sounded two cannons to signify race postponement.
Boats all around us were having a swim:

Melissa just jumped in with her clothes on. I jumped in with my underwear and scrubbed the bottom for about 20 minutes. The water was VERY warm. There was about 3/8" of scum on the bottom of the boat!
Tanker sounded three cannons to signify the abandonment of the race.
We took a leisurely motor along Whitby Shores.
Melissa said "This was the best race night ever!!!!"
It was fun for sure.
